"Are you from Hoshino's group?" Uchiha Yashiro asked.
"No!" The Bingkui shook its head and said, "I am Hoshino, and I created this body. Isn't it great!"
As she spoke, a strange smile suddenly appeared on her lips, and a crystalline ice flower condensed at her fingertips.
Ice Release?
Yashiro's pupils contracted sharply. "This isn't from Kirigakure..."
"That's right! This is Kirigakure's Kekkei Genkai, and there are Swift Release ninjas waiting outside the village to provide support."
Bingkui chuckled, "On the surface, this will be a joint operation planned by Kirigakure and Kumogakure."
"But this kind of thing can't be hidden!" Uchiha Yashiro said in a deep voice.
"So what! They can't produce any evidence internationally, so they can't openly attack Sunagakure. I'm not afraid of them playing dirty tricks!"
Bingkui calmly said, "Elder Yashiro, please consider this carefully. This is the only way to preserve the Uchiha bloodline."
"At least our Sunagakure is bolder than other ninja villages, daring to make direct contact with you."
Uchiha Yashiro's fingers unconsciously traced the edge of the scroll, his gaze fixed on Uchiha Itachi's calm face in the photograph.
The child he watched grow up has now become the executioner who wiped out his clan.
After pondering for a long time.
"Twenty people... that's too few!"
The Uchiha Yashiro said, "We need at least thirty people, and most of them should be children under the age of fifteen."
They are the future of the Uchiha!
" Yashiro Elder, please stop joking!"
Bingkui immediately refused, saying, "Do you know that I can't even guarantee that all twenty of them will make it to Sunagakure?"
The Uchiha Clan's escape is a serious matter and will certainly be pursued jointly by Konoha Anbu and Root.
People will definitely die on the road, and it won't just be one or two.
According to Hoshino's calculations, it would be good if ten out of twenty people could reach Sunagakure.
Not to mention that the number increased to thirty, most of whom were children with low combat capabilities.
"Thirty people, at least fifteen of them are children!"
The Uchiha Yashiro did not change his mind, but a pleading look appeared in his eyes as he looked at the Bingkui.
" Yashiro Elder, you know it's impossible!"
"Possibly, for thirty people, I can give you five pairs of Three-Tomoe Sharingan."
Upon hearing this, the Bingkui raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise on its face.
Are five pairs Mitsudomoe...?
Someone else might actually have agreed.
However, what Hoshino wanted was the Sharingan's dynamic vision and perception.
This is an ability that one can acquire with One-Tomoe.
The reason for wanting Mitsudomoe is simply to study the power boost that comes from increasing the Tomoe.
However, Uchiha Yashiro seemed to have discerned Bingkui's intentions and immediately said, "I can raise the stakes!"
"Increase the stakes?" Bingkui said, "As you can see, Yashiro Elder, what I want from the Sharingan is quantity, not quality."
"You don't want that substitution technique either?"
Uchiha Yashiro said, "Many people believe that the greatest ability of the Mitsudomoe is its ability to accurately sense Chakra flow and nature transformation and to copy its Ninjutsu."
"But what they don't know is that the Mitsudomoe can also be used to perform a secret technique of our clan."
Izanagi.
Bingkui certainly knew this secret technique; he even knew another secret technique that the other party hadn't mentioned.
Izanami.
After all, both Danzo Obito Uchiha Mitsudomoe after their Shimura Danzō were wiped out, and their goal was to use Izanagi.
Izanagi transforms the caster's unfavorable reality into an illusion and reshapes it into a reality that is favorable to them.
It's equivalent to a brief period of invincibility; even if you are killed during this time, you can revive.
Izanami forces the opponent into an endless loop of Genjutsu world, from which they cannot escape unless they accept the 'truth' set by the caster.
Most importantly, it seems that Izanami doesn't need to make eye contact; she can activate it simply by recording the same action twice during battle.
Both of these are considered bug-level abilities; a Mitsudomoe character can only use them once.
The Uchiha Yashiro was a cunning old fox.
At this point, he was still thinking of holding back. Hoshino didn't believe that he knew about Izanagi but not Izanami.
It's simply to provide insurance for the clansmen who went to Sunagakure.
That's enough.
The Uchiha Yashiro previously mentioned five pairs of Mitsudomoe, which meant ten eyes, essentially giving him ten extra lives.
"... make a deal."
The Bingkui said, "Thirty people, fifteen children, but you must first give me ten pairs of Sharingan."
"Ten pairs? That's practically giving them all to you, that's against the rules."
Bingkui's lips curled into a cold smile as he said, "Elder Yashiro, now is not the time to haggle."
She tapped the table lightly. "You should know that once the night of the massacre begins, these eyes will all belong to Shimura Danzō."
Just then, footsteps sounded outside, and the two of them fell silent.
Fortunately, they were ninjas patrolling the courtyard.
Only after the footsteps faded into the distance did Yashiro slowly exhale a breath of stale air.
Five pairs.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I can give you five pairs first, two of which are Mitsudomoe. The rest will be delivered after the clansmen are safe."
After a moment's thought, the Bingkui nodded and said, "Okay, give it to me now. I need to make some preparations."
Seeing that the Bingkui agreed, Uchiha Yashiro's tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and he stood up, saying, "Wait for me in the room, I'll be back soon."
He then donned his outer robe and silently disappeared into the night.
One hour later.
The Uchiha Yashiro returned as promised, clutching an ancient scroll and a specially made container in his hand.
"It's all here."
He placed the items on the table and said, "Two pairs of Mitsudomoe, one pair of Two-Tomoe, and two pairs of One-Tomoe. The scroll contains the Hand Seals and precautions for Izanagi."
Bingkui nodded and began examining the Sharingan and scroll contents within the container.
To be honest, she couldn't tell whether Izanagi was real or not, but Uchiha Yashiro wouldn't try to play tricks on this unless he was stupid.
"Prepare a room for me. Don't disturb me before sunset tomorrow. As for those leaving, bring them here directly!"
Uchiha Yashiro nodded silently, leading the Bingkui through the dark corridor to a secluded basement.
The walls of the room were covered with Sealing Jutsu, clearly indicating that it was a place specifically used for secret meetings.
"It's safe enough here."
Yashiro lit the candlesticks on the wall and said, "I will bring the chosen person before sunset tomorrow night."
Bingkui looked around and nodded, saying, "Elder Yashiro, go to the edge of the Forest of Death and fetch someone, then bring him here."
"Are you kidding me?" Uchiha Yashiro frowned.
Why bring it up now, right after the deal is done? Isn't that just trying to raise the price on the spot?
At the edge of the Forest of Death, where Konoha's sensory barriers are everywhere, they still want to let someone in? Do they really think Root is dead?
Bingkui's lips curled slightly upward as he chuckled, "Elder Yashiro, don't be nervous. This is just an additional request. It would be best if you could accept it, but it's alright if you can't."
